Happy Sunday!

 Hi Everyone....Happy Sunday!
Just a few pic my hubby snapped a few nights ago of my furry one and me. 

These were taken about 8pm after a LONG day of running around doing all kinds of things.  Belle went with Dad and Dan on a  few outings she just loves to ride and go.. and I was at appointments and some shopping all day...

She doesn't often lay in my lap like this and then to fall asleep too, she was really pooped out.. She looks so sweet there you would never know she has little horns that come out...
That's it for today..
Enjoy!!

Wedding card #2

Hi Everyone!!!
Been wanting to post the second Wedding card I made the first one I posted on the 6th and had this one finished a few days later,,,,, but,,,,, Mom had them both and could not decide which one she wanted to use... so I had to wait till she was ready... She picked the first one I had done on the 6th, if you didn't see it please go back and check it out.
OK on to this one:
I made it finished card size of 5 x 7 too, it worked will with this large SU Magnolia stamp. Again I used Canson Watercolor paper 11 x 15 pad, then cut at 5 x 14 and scored at 7, perfect again.
I layered the back ground with black first then some Beautiful Pearls paper called Core'dinations this one is Tan Pearl and got it from JoAnns.  Then stamped and embossed the Magnolia on the pearls paper... Love how that looks... the "live with passion" came from another SU set  Inspired by Nature again I embossed that with gold to give it some bling, and added the black layer and a little ribbon and bow.

 Here's a close up of the layers and embossing.......

And the inside I just made very simple with a couple of corner dies by Marianne, I re stamped the Magnolia again with a light tan and picked a verse from Cloud 9 (Simple Thoughts- Love) it's an old set but I love using it for so many things....

I know the card don't say anything about a wedding but I hoping the beauty of it brings out the thought of being together forever...
I'll wright something like that when I make it out.
Let me know what you think....!!!!

Ducks in a Row

Belated Birthday Card using the Taylored Expressions stamp set called Ducks in a Row... It's been out for a long time but I just had not gotten it...kept looking at it each time I visited the Taylored Expressions site but for some reason put it off.. will I finally got it and it just so darn Cute!!!

 used Water Color paper to stamp the ducks on and Memento pens to color them in... The plaid paper came from a clearance pad by DCWV/ The Pets Stack. Ribbon was SU and just an old button I had.

Here's a close up..........

The inside is the same plaid paper I had left and I cut some grass from a MFT die, and stamped the little ducks in a light tan so they could be written over if needed.
Love how it turned out.. think I'll make a few more the same to have on hand.

Mr. & Mrs.

Yesterday Mom asked me if I had the Wedding cards started / finished yet..... Don't need them till October but she wants to be ready....
So when I got home I got cracking...
Here's my first attempt, not bad if I say so myself. Another first for me is making a finished 5 x 7 card too. I tried a few times in the past but there just was to much room for me. But with this card it seam to come together.

For the card base I used Canson Watercolor paper it comes in several size pads this one measures 11 x 15. So I cut it 5 x 14 and scored at 7, perfect. 

Tip: When I went to cut the 15 inch side I just lined up my 5 inch mark on my Guillotine cutter and cut about 3/4 of the way down then turned it around and pushed the cut side up against the cutting edge and lined up the top at 5 and got a perfect cut !! Then cut and inch off the bottom and had my 5 x 14, YEA!!

The Mr. & Mrs. is from Flourishes popped up on a Spellbinders Fancy Tag-3.  Now the set of Wedding rings was from a really old CM set called Wedding Glimpses Done with one and I popped that up too.
I layered the back ground with black first then some Beautiful Pearls paper called Core'dinations this one is Tan Pearl and got it from JoAnns.  This paper comes in beautiful pale colors of pink, blue, and a pure white, can't remember the others but they are all beautiful and know I'll be getting more.

Here's a close up, I was hoping the pearl paper would show but I don't think it is, believe me it's beautiful!

OK, now for the inside, the border was from the same CM Wedding Glimpses Done with one pack and I layered it with some paper I used on the front to tie it in.  The Beautiful Stamps are by Flourishes and the corner is a die by Marianne.  These Marinne dies are so fine and beautiful, I love them all. 
Will that's it for me today. Please let me know what you think, I'm always learning and welcome any suggestions!!

WOYWW

WOYWW
(What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday)
Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters from all over the world to share what they are working on with a pic of our play area. It's really fun to see all the different things people are working on from all over the world and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's site, Thanks Julie!!!!!!
First I'd like to thank you for stopping by my place and visiting! I so enjoy reading your comments and encouragement too!
Will here's mine for today;
FIRST thing this morning while it was still dark out.... I was putting the coffee on and I heard this Splush!! noise from the pool.... then little splush, splush, splush's... I ran to the door and there was Belle Doggie Paddling for her life it the FAR end of the pool...
I ran out to the edge were she was in my nightie and called her and just reached her and gave her a little boost up an out.... she ran outside to the Grass and started rolling..... And I had just taking her to get a bath and all that yesterday.... So I went and got her drying towels and she came running and laied right down so good while I dried her off then went and got the second towel to finish her up....
Here's a shot of her after she was mostly dry in the craft room playing in her towel. 
So Cute right!!!!



 And a second shot of the same...
Now you may ask... how did she fall in... will she is not a big fan of the pool... if she can't touch she won't go any feather.. so the top step is her limit...
But this morning is was still a little dark at 6:30am and it had really rained hard last night so we had little frogs out... and she scared up 3 or 4 at once and one must have went for the pool and will the rest is history.....
She is being much more careful with her Frogs now let me tell you......
After all the Dog rescue and the drying and all that I finally finished making the coffee...
Boy was that first cup the best cup of coffee this morning!!!
